All Rivers to the Sea8 reviews
Bodie; Thoene, Brock Thoene
Nelson (Thomas) Publishers,U.S., 2000
An excellent finale
All Rivers to the Sea was a wonderful way to end the Galway Chronicles. Once more I was moved to laughter and tears as I followed the lives of the people of Ballyknockanor. Martin's character was fleshed out nicely, Corrie and Ceili's story made a heart wringing sub-plot, and Mad Molly was as wise, humorous, and prophetic as ever. Though it's nice to think of Kate and Joseph living ...

JUST WHEN I THOUGHT I READ THE BEST ONE....
I read numerous books by numerous authors, and Theone is by far the best I have ever read. I have read her Zion Chronicles and Galway Chronicles and Shiloh Autumn. But the Shiloh Legacy is definantly the best one. Theone defines hisorical fiction and makes it real to life. She is a master in descriptive writting. Her characters come alive and you find yourself becoming a part of them and their ...

Bodie Thoene, Brock Thoene
Thomas Nelson Publishers, 1999
Different Setting, Same Great Writing
When Joseph Connor Burke returned to the small Irish village of Ballynockanor, he only expected to stay a few months. Just long enough to put the past and his stolen inheritance behind him. But as he gets reacquainted with his neighbors, he finds himself drawn into their struggles against Protestants in general and his uncle in particular. Is there a way to reclaim what is rightfully his? Is ...

great reading
I love the Thoene books but this series is especially great reading for me as they bring the past to life and I can understand and get excited all over again about the impact that Jesus has had on the world.

The A D Chronciles
I am interested in good clean stories that leave one feeling like life has some value. The A D Chronicles are such books. I would recommend them
for any adult's reading. The Thoenes are wonderful writers that have the ability to transport a reader back in time to share the action first hand.

Vienna Prelude/Prague Counterpoint/Munich Signature/Jerusalem Interlude/Danzig Passage/Warsaw Requiem (Zion ...20 reviews
Bodie Thoene
Bethany House Publishers, 1991
A MUST READ, MUST BUY!
I have only recently been introduced to Bodie Thoene, but I became an instant fan with Vienna Prelude. Some of the twists in the book had my mouth dropping open. In the world of espionage, you don't know who to trust and who not to--these books brought that alive. They are written about a time before even my parents were born, and it's mouth-droolingly interesting to see what could have happened ...

Add this keeper to your Home library!
Where do I begin? This book, as each and every one of The Thoene's are, had me feeling unusually emotional. I had goosebumps and tears. I laughed out loud. These authors are so addictive I have bought every series they have written. My husband does not care to read, so I buy the cassette tapes and we listen to them while driving on trips. The characters feel like your own friends. The style of ...

Vienna Prelude (The Zion Covenant Series, Vol 1)32 reviews
Bodie Thoene
Northstar Audio Books Inc (a), 1993
Fantastic Series. A real eye opener.
This book is a real eye opener if you are interested in WWII, but don't want to watch boring documentaries or read boring text books about it. It brings it to life. Charlotte Mason would have called this a "living book". Historically acurate history written in story format. There are 9 in the series, and all are worth the read.

Great book!
I read this series when I was in the seventh or eight grade. I found this to be a REALLY good series. It has a little bit of everything to make it a truely captivating book. It has historical facts in it, along with some of the Jewish language, romance, and lots of adventure! While I was reading this series, my father and I would sit around and discuss the books at night. I definatly ...

Zion Covenant 1-6 Boxed Set6 reviews
Bodie Thoene
Bethany House Publishers, 2000
For Picky Readers
OK; I have a family,work fulltime and go to school at night and some weekends... I don't read for fun unless it is quality. Bodie Thoene delivers! Historical accuracy is nice, but I need a storyline that leaves me on the edge of my seat, that pulls me into another world and makes me root for the characters because they become real to me. The Zion Covenant books could easily be made into an epic ...

Incredible series!
The Zion series are without a doubt some of the best books I have ever read! The stories are captivating from beginning to end. The historical accuracy is impeccable, and the writers literally transport you into the story. I have read the series several times, and I still can't put the books down. It is refreshing to know that the books are good, clean reading, no profanity or vulgar content. ...

Simply Brilliant
This book - the whole series, in fact, are so filled with power it is amazing. It convicted me, inspired me, and moved me. I read a lot of books, and I mean a lot, but very few are in the calibre this book is in. The characters are very real and the way in which they relate to one another makes you feel as though you are a part of the action. I became so involved that at the end of the book I ...

Bodie & Brock Thoene
Bethany House Publishers, 1993
Some of the best books I've ever read.
These books were so well researched and the characters were fascinating. One thing about Bodie's books is that they are not predictable. One never knows who may die or be arrested or what! After reading this series, I went to the library and checked out books and videos on this time period. I learned so much. I have read all six of the books several times and even picked Elisa as the name ...

Bodie Thoene
Bethany House Publishers, 1993
Excellent book by excellent authors
I love books by the Thoenes, but any book from this series ranks right at the top of the list. *Say to this Mountain* is real. It deals with what was reality in America in 1930. Doctors forced to imagine illnesses in employees of a factory in order to keep their jobs. Black men arrested and losing their property to [...] sherriffs. A man and his son chased by a mafia member who desired ...

Recorded Books, 2002
I nearly failed Uni because of this book!
I had to write this review to encourage people to read these books. I discovered them during exam time in my second year of Uni and can't believe I managed to pass my exams when I read each book non stop over four days. Truly exception books and an inspirational writer. I have never been so deeply effected by a novel before.

A new reader of this series can't put the book down!
By chance I picked up this book from the local library. I have not heard of the author before. It is excellent and forces me to read all the series in the right order! I love historical fiction and Bodie Thoene is very good.Set in Germany and Austria just before the Second World War, the reader's attention is gripped from the first page!
